specific types and quantities of amino acids in a sample

Amino Acid Composition, also known as Amino Acid Profile, refers to the specific types and quantities of amino acids present in a protein or a biological sample. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins, and their composition determines the protein's structure, function, and nutritional value. Understanding the amino acid composition is crucial for various applications, including nutrition, medical research, and the development of treatments for conditions like alopecia, where protein synthesis and hair growth may be affected.
